Product Details

AR Mini is a dwarf variant of the well recognized Alternanthera Reineckii. This plant is commonly used in Dutch aquascapes for its bright and vibrant red colors. Its miniature growth allows it to be used in both large and small aquariums as either a foreground, midground or background plant. Like other stem plants, it requires medium to high light with the addition of CO2 for optimum growth. It can be grown emersed or submerged and reaches up to 8 inches tall.

Propagating AR Mini is like any other stem plant, simply cut the stem and replant.

Notes:

  • Alternanthera provides great coverage for sensitive fauna species and is a relatively easy choice for beginners who are looking for colored aquarium plants.
  • Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant.
  • Please be sure to remove this plant from its wrap. Remove the foam surrounding the roots and plant into a quality substrate. For instructions on how to properly prep “bunched“ aquarium plants, click here.
  • CO2 injection and quality aquarium soil will yield better growth.
  • Please research appropriately to ensure your plant thrives.

Common Name: Rosette Sword, Tropica Sword Rosette sword plants are incredibly adaptable, making them a perfect choice for many types of aquariums. This stem plant grows in a rosette formation, producing long, pointed, light green leaves that have a hammered texture and prominent veins. It is more compact than other available sword plants. The bright color and coarse texture make this plant excellent for a mid- or foreground focal point. With a nutrient rich substrate these plants will tolerate most lighting conditions, but moderate to high lighting is ideal. CO2 injection is not necessary but will help the plant grow faster if needed. An iron supplement may be needed in some tanks. Rosette sword plants will grow submersed or emersed, with emersed plants producing small flowers. These plants propagate through side shoots off of their leaves, which can be trimmed and replanted into the substrate. To control the size of your Rosette sword plant you can remove the side shoots and older leaves.
